Abby’s Point of View
Kailan ba ako huling tumapak sa Interpol office?! Hindi ko na matandaan. I heard that Ace’s buddy is the new boss in Singapore HQ, so might as well talk to him directly. I sent a message to Ace informing him about the situation. I told him we were on the way to Interpol. He just replied a thumbs up. A man of few words, indeed.
Sinundo kami ng bagong apprentice ni Ace. Medyo bata pa. Nasa early twenties.
“Ilang taon ka na?” I asked him while he is driving. “Twenty-two, Ma’am,” sagot nito. Nakatingin si Ayano sa amin mula sa rear view mirror.
“Hattest du meine Waffen?” (Do you have my guns?) I asked him in German. Tumango lang ito. Tumaas ang kilay ni Ayano pero hindi nagsalita.
“Und Messer?” (And Knives?) Tumango ulit ito. Ang bilin ni Ace, less talk, less caught.
